They are still very mush around. I have not seen them at night for a couple of days, but come near sunrise you will hear and see them LOL

and.. with those Hyaena's around at night, they do not like to be used as play toys and chased all the time   Eye-wink

I thought a couple of times that I have seen them bringing young to the WH. They get really playful and are the first to go for a swim.  I think one a few weeks ago that there seemed to be some interest in a female ..really nosiy and she was chasing several of them off. Maybe one of the guys caught her attention and she is the Chubby one we saw tonight LOL

I didn't notice that Wild Dreamer but my pic is quite fuzzy right now...wouldn't it be great if they denned close by and we saw the little ones again...they are so playful.

Did anyone else notice that a couple of those Hyeana looked "very chubby" and one evven appeared to have teats like she was nursing ?

They certainly looked well fed.  It's a good time for them - lots of babies around.

Thank you, Ex. That really sounded human, as does the giggle. Strange creatures they are.
